Erin Wholley Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (35 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves West Newbury, MA

Visit my Instagram for contact info and more photography! — ErinWholleyPhotography • Weddings are a culmination of love, life, happiness, family history, commitment, art, and so much more. My love for photography and the importance it plays in remembering cherished moments spans decades. Photographs are one of the only tangible items you receive after your wedding day (aside from the memories) to help you relive this time for the rest of your days. I will hype you up all day long to make sure you are enjoying every aspect of your day with your partner— that’s truly what it’s all about!

I'm truly forever grateful that we found Erin and chose her to be our wedding photographer. She captured the exact vision I was hoping for—before I even knew what that vision was myself. Her technical talent goes without saying, but beyond that, she is a true visionary. She approaches each wedding authentically, embracing it as it naturally unfolds and capturing every couple in a way that feels genuine and true to who they are. I can wholeheartedly say this because we brought Erin with us to Tuscany, Italy, for an elopement that was far from a traditional wedding experience. Not only was she one of only two people (alongside our elopement planner) to attend our wedding, but she also felt like family. She celebrated our love while beautifully documenting the happiness, emotion, and uniqueness of our day. Nearly two years later, when we look back at our photos, we can still vividly remember every moment and relive memories that we are so grateful to have preserved for a lifetime. Erin had a big task on her hands, as none of our family members were able to join us for our elopement. Our gallery became their window into one of the most important days of our lives. We received endless praise for both the quality of the images and the way the story of our day was told, and we owe every bit of that to her. She is truly a hidden gem in this industry. The care, intention, and artistry she brings to every wedding are unmatched. I genuinely can't imagine trusting anyone else to capture life's most meaningful moments for us. Choosing Erin was one of the best decisions we made, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Alexis was absolutely amazing. She was extremely professional, her photography speaks for itself. She is also an absolute peach to work with, she is so fun and filled with energy. My bridal party loved her and all my guest adored her. She was all over the place following my husband and I. She sent me sneak peaks shortly after my wedding and every pic I swiped through would be even better than the last. I couldn’t be more happy with how they came out. She did such a wonderful job, I get countless compliments on my pictures. I would highly recommend her for any photo opportunity you need. I would rate her 6 stars if I could!

Kirsten did a wonderful job of making us feel comfortable.

I really appreciated her conscientiousness regarding small talk because she was so pleasant to talk with but also gave us plenty of room to breathe after such a big moment. We’re incredibly happy with how our photos turned out and would highly recommend her!

Sadowski Photography

  • Serves West Newbury, MA

I'm Marc Sadowski, a New England wedding photographer with 20+ years of experience capturing weddings across New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, and beyond. My approach is candid and documentary — I stay back, watch, and wait for the moments that happen when you forget the camera is there. I learned photography as a photojournalist, where you get one shot or you miss it forever. That instinct drives everything I do on your wedding day.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. From the start, Marc's communication was clear, prompt, and easy, which made the whole process feel seamless. On the day of, he was incredibly friendly and made us (and everyone else) feel comfortable in front of the camera with his humor and direction —no small feat. What really stood out to us was his eye for candid moments. He captured so many genuine, in-between shots that perfectly tell the story of our day—nothing felt forced or overly posed. We loved working with him so much that he has become our go-to photographer for family photos as well. If you’re looking for someone talented, personable, and reliable, you won’t regret choosing Marc!

My husband and I had some trepidation around choosing a photographer for our elopement, mainly because we really wanted any photos taken to reflect the two of us, and our relationship, authentically. We wanted intimate, personal, simple, and classic...and we found all of these things in Tessa. Tessa always put our vision at the forefront of her work, and she worked with us every step of the planning process to make our elopement seamless. She suggested venues, worked with our busy schedules to coordinate planning meetings, and even served as our officiant. Throughout it all, she was the perfect balance of honesty, warmth, and professionalism, and we would work with her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Tessa, for everything. You are amazing!

Available for MICRO-WEDDINGS & ELOPEMENTS only: I’m a Virginia transplant who makes her home north of Boston! I’m obsessed with the diversity and energy of the city, but also with how easy it is to escape to nature in New England. As an introvert, I definitely need both! I’m married to a handsome fellow creative (of the wordsmithing and storytelling variety) and we love our homebody life together. I’m a photographer because I think people are fascinating. Because memories are fleeting. Because we all need some beauty around us to help us remember how incredibly blessed we are to be alive.

I was searching for a photographer in the Boston area to capture the moment I propose to my girlfriend when we visited Boston. I was referred to Lorna's website and I was very impressed with her portfolio/website. I reached out and received a quick response! We set up a zoom call to get to know each other. Lorna was very nice and professional. She offered great advice and really wants to get to know you and your partner. I was very impressed with Lorna overall and 10/10 would recommend.

She knew how to capture our love story during our engagement shoot and the results were so beautiful. She is so knowledgeable of the industry and was able to help make sure we had everything we needed before the wedding to get the content and shots we wanted. Because Meghan was so thorough and her attention to detail, I was able to be in the moment and enjoy our wedding day trusting her to capture the moments we could cherish forever. It would be a mistake to ask her to be your photographer and be a part of the magic she will create for you on your wedding day.

Unlike many husband and wife photography teams, we were not high school sweethearts. We also didn’t know each other in college, or even live in the same country when we fell in love with photography. Instead, we started as friendly competitors. It took about four years until that competition turned into something more than discussing tricks of the trade. Eventually, we won each other over and joined forces.

We cannot recommend Gaby and Dave enough as wedding photographers! They made us feel so comfortable and at ease. Their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail were exceptional. They truly went above and beyond to capture every moment, ensuring that no special memory was missed. The photos turned out absolutely stunning, and each one tells the perfect story of our wedding day. We felt completely taken care of, and we couldn’t be happier with how they helped make our day unforgettable. They even made sure to get a couple outside pictures by the water on one of the windiest days. If you’re looking for photographers who are not only talented but also genuinely care about making your experience amazing, Gaby and Dave are the ones to choose!

I’m a photographer for people who don’t resonate with traditional wedding photography. For those who want their weddings to be told like a story that features every bear hug, belly laugh, stolen glance, spilled drink, booty shake, and happy tear. For those who prioritize genuine and unscripted moments over trends and shot lists. For those who don’t want to feel like they’re wasting their day posing for the camera. For those who are inspired by the past and hopeful for the future. For those looking to create a little bit of future nostalgia.

Prose Florals was sooo lucky to have worked weddings with Caroline. Not only is she the sweetest, her work is just incredible. She captured our florals for a wedding at the Rockfor Art Museum in September of 2022 and we still can't stop looking at them. From her photos we have gotten SOOO many compliments on the floral work we did for the wedding. Her talent is unmatched.

Hi, I’m Emily! I’m a wedding photographer for the wildly in love, the offbeat romantics, and the couples who value a good laugh as much as a good love story. My style? Vibrant, true-to-color images that feel as timeless as your favorite song and as honest as your vows. I edit with intention – keeping skin tones real, colors rich, and moments full of life.

Awarded Best of Zola
We first hired Emily for our engagement party about six years ago, and she absolutely blew us away. The photos were stunning! Full of life, emotion, and beautifully captured moments. I still look back at them all the time. When I hired someone else for my baby shower, it was a huge regret. The photos didn’t come close to what I had hoped for. I couldn’t stop thinking about how incredible Emily had been, so six years later, I reached out to her again for our maternity shoot… and she nailed it once again. She has a true gift, not just for photography, but for making people feel completely at ease in front of the camera. My husband and I are both naturally awkward when it comes to photos, but Emily somehow brings out the most genuine version of us. She’s hilarious, down to earth, and has this incredible ability to make the entire experience feel fun and effortless. What could’ve been an uncomfortable, stiff shoot turned into one of our favorite memories. I will truly never go to anyone else for photos. Emily is a 10/10, every single time!

I’ve loved photography for as long as I can remember, and I’m lucky to have made it a central part of both my life and career. I specialize in capturing people in their environments, the connections between them, and the small moments that reveal their humanity. Weddings are a favorite because they’re full of real joy, love, and the moments that make life feel full. My approach blends a documentary eye with a fine art perspective, creating images that feel honest, thoughtful, and true to the people I photograph.

Terri was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. We booked her just one week before our wedding day. Regardless, Terri was prompt and professional in her communication. On the day, Terri guided us through the various shots, capturing the day, the scene, and our outfits with stunning color and light. She put us at ease despite our camera shyness. One of our favorite photos was an unplanned shot of us on my motorcycle as we passed it on the street. Upon seeing it, we instantly knew that it would be the one we frame to capture the day. We were thrilled with her work capturing our elopement and highly recommend Terri.

My work is vibrant, moment-driven, and authentic. I love focusing on your connection as a couple, what makes you and your wedding unique, and your interactions with family and friends as you celebrate together. My approach to wedding photography leans toward a documentary or photojournalistic style with a fine art element (I graduated from Wellesley College with a degree in studio art). While I might suggest an area with great lighting to stand in, I will never ask you to “pretend” to do anything. Ever.

We met Danielle at an LGBTQ wedding expo while searching for photographer that had experience photographing two dress weddings, a niche market we quickly figured out, and immediately fell in love. Her photos capture the moment and never feel overly posed, which won over my camera shy wife immediately. We did our engagement shoot on the streets of Salem and Danielle managed to capture the love we have for each other and made simple store fronts look like a Christmas wonderland without making the shoot feel like work. By the time we got to our wedding day, we had absolutely no concerns about her ability to capture the day as a single shooter and she definitely didn’t disappoint! She created the most perfect first look so we could take a moment together before the ceremony began, melted into the background and got a million candid photos of our night, set up the PERFECT photo flash dance to get some silly photos of our friend groups, and corralled our blended families for gorgeous group shots.

I believe that there is no picture more beautiful than that of someone in love, so I use my skills to capture specifically that – the emotion, the moment, the glow. I strive to create beautiful timeless photos for you to cherish and share for future generations.

Alisha was easily the BEST decision we made for our wedding. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she brings such a calming, grounding presence that gave us peace of mind throughout the entire day. In the months leading up to the wedding she was responsive, organized, and easy to work with. On the wedding day, she was a true professional—adhering to the timeline we created with ease, and never feeling the least bit intrusive. She made sure to capture every photo combination we requested and skillfully wrangled a bridal party of 21 including 3 flower girls, and 2 babies—all with patience and a smile. And the photos?… absolutely stunning! Her eye for composition is exceptional, and every image feels thoughtful, artistic, and timeless. They look like they belong in a magazine and many people have told us so. We received a TON of photos in our gallery. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend Alisha a thousand times over. She exceeded every expectation!

Hi, I’m Sarah, I’ve been a wedding photographer for over 10 years, ever since I shot my first wedding at 19. Based in Haverhill, Massachusetts MA, with a studio in Newburyport MA, I specialize in capturing moody, dramatic images with warm tones and vibrant colors. I offer wedding packages for everything from intimate elopements to destination weddings, serving couples across New England and beyond.

From the moment we booked Sarah Gates Photography, we knew we were in good hands. Sarah's communication style was understanding, clear, and prompt throughout the entire process. She demonstrated a dedication to her craft that was evident in the quality of her work. Sarah was diligent and professional, staying on track to capture all the important moments of our special day. She helped us feel comfortable and confident during our engagement and wedding photo sessions, continuously hyping me up and capturing so many beautiful memories. Sarah is extremely kind and easy to get along with, which was a huge help in keeping me calm during the more stressful parts of the wedding day. We could not be happier with the value Sarah provided and would highly recommend her services to any couple looking for a talented, personable photographer to document their big day.
